[1st-mile-nm] Broadband New Mexico, a List

Wed Aug 1 20:56:40 PDT 2012

Got an idea,  Lets not over complicate this.

This is someone that can do nice web design, with a SQL back end.  I think we have that talent in NM.

This is a tool that allows an entity to sign up, and fill-out a form that documents what they provide and can do.
It is search engine friendly.

Its hosted on local NM based servers, that have people that live in NM that can go touch the server(s).

Maybe we get a couple of providers to provide a mirrored (redundant) environment. ?

It must be protected from agenda and political capture by any single entity.
It must be transparent and have simple guide lines for participation.

My firm, CityLink Telecom is willing to post a $1000.00 bounty to fund the web/sql development.
Tell me where to send the check.  Must be a valid NM entity ! :)

Yes, we should huddle and speak on Friday.   I'll be there ;)

Hey everyone...

We (NM Technology Council) are definitely glad to help, but I agree with Gary here - finding the platform, making it relatively easy to submit useful info, including some feedback loops to encourage stakeholders to participate and keep it all current... are all necessary pieces.

I know I'm planning to attend the Broadband Summit Friday and think this is a good piece to suggest and implement.  Anyone else interested in this topic who plans to attend/participate?

Best wishes,

Eric

A “Group” could be set up on NMTC, but that may not fill the real need of having a “directory” that is well publicized among the intended audience as well as vendors/providers participants.  And the information in the directory must be meaningful, accurate and current.

This is not a trivial undertaking – it will require leadership and commitment.

Some of the folks you mention are on this list already...we are a colo provider-bigbyte.cc Corp.

But I believe some of the folks you seek are coordinating with the NMTC so...
Perhaps a coordination with New Mexico Tech Council would be appropriate?

I like the idea. How about network engineering firms on that list?

What are your thoughts in regard to the use of this list, distribution, how and to whom?

I propose that we create a list of Broadband service providers, hosting companies, colo companies, that are headquartered in New Mexico and owned by people that live in New Mexico.

I'm willing to help in anyway possible to create a reliable and unbiased list of such firms.

Thoughts ??
